Muck away
Muck away planned around your excavation, so spoil leaves site as fast as it is dug.
Phase 01 · Site enabling & prep
Excavation produces spoil that has to go somewhere. Civio plans muck away around the type of material, the volumes, site access and where it is going, so the working area stays clear and the dig keeps moving.
At The Jo Richardson Community School we removed over 1,200 m³ of soil during site enabling. Because muck away is run by the team doing the excavation, loading and vehicle movements are timed with the work instead of booked separately.

Common questions
What is muck away?
The planned removal of excavated soil, spoil, rubble or other agreed material from a site.
What information do you need for a quote?
The material type, an estimated volume, the site location, access and loading arrangements, and when the excavation is happening.
Can muck away be part of a wider package?
Yes. Most of our muck away runs alongside our own excavation, foundations and drainage, which keeps loading and haulage in step with the programme.
